DECONSTRUCTION ZONE

Resisting Systemic Oppression and Strengthening Solidarity

Week 7
May 12-16, 2025

Dear Anteater Community,

Greetings from the Cross-Cultural Center!

We are finalizing details for our spring quarter signature program, Deconstruction Zone, beginning next week.

Deconstruction Zone focuses on one theme with a series of events used to unpack and encourage dialogue around it. This year’s theme is Resisting Systemic Oppression & Strengthening Solidarity.

This series includes meditation focused on solidarity, workshops, and speakers exploring our theme. Workshop topics include joy and resistance, environmental justice, radical healing for women of color, solidarity through dance, and concluding with a virtual conversation with Dr. Claire Kim where she will discuss Asian Americans in an Anti-Black World.

For full details and to RSVP, please visit this link: Deconstruction Zone Event List.

We hope you can join our community as we unpack this theme. Thank you.

Sincerely,

Dr. Cesar Ramos
Director, Cross-Cultural Center
